Teachers need to be strong communicators and be comfortable leading classrooms of various sizes. Although most of the time PE teachers are instructing outside of the classroom, they will often teach in a classroom setting as well. Sports teachers may also be athletic coaches for different sports. They frequently work long hours and are required to stay after school to supervise athletic activities.
The grade level that the prospective sports teacher wants to teach will determine the education specialty within the degree program. Schools offer teaching degree programs in early childhood education, middle school education and high school education, as well as special education for various age groups.
Although there are diverse education degrees that aspiring educators can earn, courses are similar in many programs. Earning a B.Ed. will generally take students four years. Prospective PE teachers can take electives that focus on teaching PE and might include:
- Anatomy and physiology
- PE methods
- Nutrition and health
- First aid
- Coaching theory
- Classroom management
